Ride to Remember makes a loud statement as it rolls into Muskego Saturday afternoon for a little lunch.

Hundreds of motorcycles made their way into Muskego from the south as they traveled throughout southeastern Wisconsin to remember firefighters and raise money for the state memorial in Wisconsin Rapids.
The 9th annual Ride of Remembrance paid a visit to Muskego as it brought about 700 motorcyclists and 900 riders to stop at the Tess Corners Fire Station No. 1 for a brief bite to eat before they continued on their ride, which began at the House of Harley Davidson in Greenfield. The riders traveled from Muskego to Stone Bank and Dousman before their final stop in East Troy.
Residents took advantage of a lazy afternoon to pull up a blanket or chair along the route and snap a few pictures. If you have any of your own that you'd like to share, feel free to upload them.

My husband and I were invited to go along on this ride and found this to be a most awesome ride ever. The ceremonies were a reminder of how these men and women put their lives on the line for us each and every time a call is put out there. It was truly an honor to be asked to join this ride. Thanks for asking us Skip. John and Tracy Snead
